FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a semiconductor memory device; and, more particularly, to a semiconductor memory chip architecture of memory banks, each having a plurality of memory blocks, and pads/control blocks and a method for arranging the memory blocks on the memory bank in a semiconductor memory device in a space effective manner.

DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART

As well known, a semiconductor memory device is generally provided with a semiconductor memory chip and a package. The semiconductor memory chip has a plurality of memory banks, each memory bank to be independently accessed. Typically, the memory device consists of, e.g., four memory banks and each memory bank consists of, e.g., four memory blocks. Each memory block includes a plurality of memory cells arranged in a matrix and selected by the same X-decoder and Y-decoder.

FIG. 1 is a plane view showing a typical memory bank in the semiconductor memory chip. For example, a 256-Mbit semiconductor memory chip is illustrated.

As shown, the semiconductor memory chip includes 16 memory blocks MBs, each having a square or a rectangular shape, and four memory blocks are assigned as one memory bank Bank_0, Bank_1, Bank_2 or Bank_3. Each of the memory banks Bank_0, Bank_1, Bank_2 or Bank_3 is also structured with a rectangular shape. Each memory block MB consists of a plurality of unit cells corresponding to 16 Mbits. The unit cells are grouped as four unit memory blocks UMBs and each unit memory block UMB corresponds to 4-Mbit memory block. Each memory block includes an X-decoder along an X-axis and a Y-decoder along a Y-axis so as to select one of memory cells.

A plurality of pads 12 and a control block 14 should be disposed in the semiconductor memory chip area except the memory blocks. The pads 12 and the control block 14 are disposed along the X-axis in the center of the semiconductor memory chip 10 according to the prior art as shown in FIG. 1. As well known, the pads are employed for transferring signals to external circuits of the semiconductor memory chip 10 and the control block 14 controls data input/output from the memory cells in response to a control signal applied from an external circuit.

FIG. 2 is a schematic plane view showing a relationship between a semiconductor memory chip having an increased size and a conventional package.

A reference numeral 20 represents the conventional package which, for example, is used in implementation of 256-Mbit semiconductor memory device. A reference numeral 22 represents a memory bank array of 512-Mbit semiconductor memory chip designed by using the same design rule used in the 256-Mbit.

As shown, for example, the 512-Mbit semiconductor memory chip having 16 memory blocks MBs are arranged in the conventional package with the same design rule according to the standard package rule of the joint electron device engineering council (JEDEC). However, as the storage capacity of semiconductor memory chip is increased, e.g., from 256 Mbits to 512 Mbits, the semiconductor memory chip size is significantly increased under the same design rule. As a result, the size-increased 16 memory blocks of 512-Mbit semiconductor memory chip cannot be arranged in the conventional package as shown in FIG. 2. Accordingly, in order to arrange the semiconductor memory chip in the same package, a design rule of a higher technology should be applied. However, higher cost and time are required in order to develop such a higher technology design rule, so that there is a problem that a memory manufacturer cannot properly and timely supply a semiconductor memory chip having a more increased storage capacity to the required system.

Furthermore, when the semiconductor memory chip has a square shape, that is, a ratio of horizontal length to vertical length in the chip becomes 1:1, the numbers of semiconductor memory chips to be obtained from a wafer are maximized. However, if, as shown in FIG. 2, the semiconductor memory chip is formed in such a manner that the ratio of horizontal length to vertical length in the semiconductor memory chip becomes larger, the numbers of chips to be obtained from the wafer may be significantly decreased.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Hereinafter, a semiconductor memory device capable of packaging a semiconductor memory chip having an increased storage capacity in a conventional package in accordance with the present invention will be described in detail referring to the accompanying drawings.

For the sake of convenience, a 512-Mbit double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR SDRAM) will be described as an example.

1) First Embodiment

FIG. 3 is a plane view showing the 512-Mbit DDR SDRAM (hereinafter, referred to as a semiconductor memory chip) in accordance with the first embodiment of the preset invention.

As shown, the semiconductor memory chip includes 12 memory blocks MB_0 to MB_11 and each memory block includes an X-decoder along an X-axis and a Y-decoder along a Y-axis for selecting one of memory cells contained in each memory block. Herein the Y-axis is typically shorter than the X-axis. Each of memory banks includes three memory blocks MBs and the semiconductor memory chip includes four memory banks Bank_0, Bank_1, Bank_2 and Bank_3, which each memory bank can independently input and output data in one of the memory cells therein.

One of memory bank Bank_0 includes three memory blocks MB_0 to MB_2. A first memory block MB_0 includes six unit memory blocks UMBs, which each unit memory block has an 8-Mbit memory cells. Thus, the first memory block MB_0 corresponds to a 48-Mbit memory block. Second and third memory blocks MB_1 and MB_2 includes five unit memory blocks, respectively, so that each of the second and third memory block MB_1 and MB_2 corresponds to a 40-Mbit memory block. Configurations of another three banks Bank_1, Bank_2 and Bank_3 are similar to that of the first bank Bank_0. Accordingly, each of memory banks has a non-rectangular shape.

The X-decoder, which is in the 48-Mbit memory block, is formed between the fifth unit memory block and the sixth unit memory block in the successively formed six unit memory blocks to have a similar design with a neighboring 40-Mbit memory block. The X-decoder in the 48-Mbit memory block has two driving terminals (not shown in FIG. 3) in order to drive the 48-Mbit memory block by the X-decoder in the 48-Mbit memory block. One driving terminal is used to drives the 40-Mbit memory block having five unit memory blocks and another driving terminal is used to drives the remaining 8-Mbit unit memory block. The 48-Mbit memory block can be arranged at any memory block.

As shown in FIG. 3, the first bank Bank_0 is arranged on a second quadrant and the second bank Bank_1 is arranged on a third quadrant. The third bank Bank 2 is arranged on a first quadrant and the fourth bank Bank_3 is arranged on a fourth quadrant. The 48-Mbit memory blocks in the first and second banks Bank_0 and Bank_1 are arranged at a left-most region thereof and the 48-Mbit memory blocks in the third and the fourth banks Bank_2 and Bank_3 are arranged at a right-most region thereof.

As shown, there is no space to provide pads and a control block between the 48-Mbit memory blocks, e.g., MB_0 and MB_3 or MB_8 and MB_11, which are vertically adjacent to each other. Since there is enough space 30 between the 40-Mbit memory blocks, which are vertically opposite, the pads 120 and the control block 140 are arranged therebetween. Namely, the pads 120 and the control block 140 are horizontally arranged at a center region of the semiconductor memory chip. When an X-axis is divided by 6 regions, the pads 120 and the control block 140 are arranged at the center region, i.e., only from a second region to a fifth region.

FIG. 4A is a schematic plane view showing a relation between a 512-Mbit semiconductor memory chip having a conventional bank array and a conventional package, and FIG. 4B is a schematic plane views showing a relation between a 512-Mbit semiconductor memory chip having a bank array in accordance with the present invention and a conventional package.

As shown, when the same design rule is applied, the first embodiment of present invention satisfies the conventional package size, however, as shown in FIG. 4A, the prior art does not satisfy the package.

FIGS. 5A and 5B are schematic plane views showing relations between the semiconductor memory chip and the package by changing positions of the 48-Mbit memory block and the control block in the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5A shows that each 48-Mbit memory block in each memory bank is arranged at a center of the semiconductor memory chip and FIG. 5B shows that the 48-Mbit memory blocks are arranged between each 40-Mbit memory blocks in each memory bank. Herein, even if the pads 120 and the control block 140 are arranged by being divided to 2 or 3 regions, FIGS. 5A and 5B show that the semiconductor memory chips meet the conventional package size. Also, compared with the prior art, the number of chips to be obtained per one wafer is increased in accordance with the present invention because the ratio of X-axis length to Y-axis length is decreased.

2) Second Embodiment

FIG. 6 is a plane view showing a semiconductor memory chip, e.g., a 512-Mbit DDR SDRAM, in accordance with the second embodiment of the present invention.

As shown, the semiconductor memory chip is vertically divided into 3 regions and horizontally divided into 6 regions. That is, the semiconductor memory chip is divided to a 3×6 block array having 18 regions. Herein, a length of a horizontal axis (hereinafter, referred to as an X-axis) of the semiconductor memory chip is longer than that of a vertical axis (Hereinafter, referred to as a Y-axis) thereof.

In middle regions of the Y-axis, a (2,1) region, which corresponds to a region of a second row and a first column in the 18 regions, is divided to two regions, (2 a,1 a) and (2 b,1 b). Also, a region (2,3), which corresponds to the second row and the third column, is divided into two regions, (2 a,3 a) and (2 b,3 b). The divided upper regions (2 a,1 a) and (2 a,3 a) are included in a first bank Bank_0 together with (1,1), (1,2) and (1,3) regions. The divided lower regions (2 b,1 b) and (2 b, 3 b) are included in a second bank Bank_together with (3,1), (3,2) and (3,3) regions. Accordingly, the first and second bank Bank_0 and Bank_1 have a non-rectangular shape different from that of the prior art. A first control block is arranged at a (2,2) region to control the first and second memory banks.

A third bank Bank_2 and a fourth bank Bank_3 have the same configuration with the first and second banks Bank_0 and Bank_1. In middle regions, a (2,4) region is divided to two regions, (2 a,4 a) and (2 b, 4 b), and a region (2,6) is divided to two regions, (2 a,6 a) and (2 b,6 b). The divided upper regions (2 a,4 a) and (2 a,6 a) are included in the third bank Bank_2 together with (1,4), (1,5) and (1,6) regions. The divided lower regions (2 b,4 b) and (2 b, 6 b) are included in the fourth bank Bank_3 together with (3,4), (3,5) and (3,6) regions. Accordingly, the third and fourth banks Bank_2 and Bank_3 have a non-rectangular shape different from that of the prior art. A plurality of pads are arranged between the first bank Bank_0 and the second bank Bank_1 and between the third bank Bank_2 and the fourth bank Bank_3. Also, a second control block is arranged at a (2,5) region to control the third and fourth memory banks, Bank_2 and Bank_3.

The first memory bank Bank_0 includes a first memory block of 48 Mbits arranged in the regions (1,1) and (2 a,1 a), a second memory block of 32 Mbits arranged in the region (1, 2), and a third memory block of 48 Mbits arranged in the regions (1,3) and (2 a,3 a). In the first memory block, four unit memory blocks, which one of unit memory blocks corresponds to 8-Mbit memory block, are arranged in the region (1,1) and two unit memory block is arranged in the region (2 a,1 a).

Since the configuration of the second to fourth memory banks Bank_1 to Bank_3 is similar to that of the first memory bank, a detailed description of the configuration thereof will be omitted.

Since each memory bank includes two 48-Mbit memory blocks and one 32-Mbit memory block, each memory bank has a non-rectangular shape. And, the second embodiment of the present invention satisfies a conventional package size without developing an improved design rule.

FIG. 7 is a schematic plane view showing a relation between the semiconductor memory chip and the conventional package satisfying a conventional package size in accordance with the second embodiment of the present invention even if the same design rule with the prior art applied. Also, the numbers of semiconductor memory chips to be obtained per one wafer can be increased because a ratio of X-axis to Y-axis is decreased.

Each memory block includes a pair of an X-decoder and a Y-decoder. The X-decoder, which is in the 48-Mbit memory block, is formed between the fourth unit memory block and the fifth unit memory block in the successively formed six unit memory blocks to have a similar design with a neighboring 32-Mbit memory block. In order to drive the 48-Mbit memory block with the X-decoder in the 48-Mbit memory block, the X-decoder has two driving terminals (not shown). One driving terminal is used to drives the 32-Mbit memory block having four unit memory blocks and another driving terminal is used to drives the remaining 16-Mbit memory block.

A plurality of pads PAD are arranged between the first memory bank Bank_0 and the second memory bank Bank_1, and between the third memory bank Bank_2 and the fourth memory bank Bank_3, by being taken along the X-axis.

FIGS. 8A and 8B are schematic plane view showing relations between the semiconductor memory chip and the package by changing positions of the control blocks in FIG. 7. The first control block is arranged at a (2,1) region and the second control block is arranged at a (2,6) region as shown in FIG. 8A_and the first control block and the second control block are arranged at (2,3) and (2,4) regions in FIG. 8B different from that of FIG. 7.

Also, the first to fourth memory banks Bank_0 to Bank_1 in the FIGS. 8A and 8B have a non-rectangular shape and meet a conventional package size.

3) Third Embodiment

FIG. 9 is a plane view illustrating a 512-Mbit DDR SDRAM chip in accordance with a third embodiment of the present invention.

As shown, the semiconductor memory chip is vertically divided by 3 and horizontally divided by 6. That is, the semiconductor memory chip is equally divided to a 3×6 block array having 18 regions. Herein, a length of a horizontal axis (hereinafter, referred to as an X-axis) of the semiconductor memory chip is longer than that of a vertical axis (Hereinafter, referred to as a Y-axis) thereof. Each memory block is arranged at 16 regions and one bank consists of four memory blocks, which are adjacent each other. First and second control blocks are arranged at another two regions.

Four 32-Mbit memory blocks, each having four 8-Mbit unit memory blocks, are arranged at (1,1), (1,2), (1,3) and (2,1) regions, respectively, in a first bank Bank_0. Even though each 32-Mbit memory block has a rectangular shape, the first bank Bank_0 consisting of four memory blocks has a non-rectangular shape different from that of the conventional bank.

Four 32-Mbit memory blocks are arranged at (2,3), (3,1), (3,2) and (3,3) regions, respectively, in a second bank Bank_1. Even though each 32-Mbit memory block has a rectangular shape, the second bank Bank_1 consisting of four memory blocks has also a non-rectangular shape different from that of the conventional bank. The first control block is arranged at a (2,2) region surrounded by the first bank Bank_0 and the second bank Bank_1.

The third memory bank Bank_2 and the fourth memory bank Bank_3 are similarly arranged with the first and the second memory bank Bank_0 and Bank_1. The second control block is arranged at a (2,5) region surrounded by the third bank Bank_2 and the fourth bank Bank_3.

And, each memory block includes a pair of an X-decoder along the X-axis and a Y-decoder along the Y-axis. The vertically adjacent 32-Mbit memory blocks, which are belong to the same bank, shares the X-decoder each other.

A plurality of pads are arranged between the fist bank Bank_0 and the second bank Bank_1 and between the third bank Bank_2 and the fourth bank Bank_3 by being taken along the center of the semiconductor memory chip.

Namely, one bank consists of four 32-Mbit memory blocks and a shape thereof has a non-rectangular shape.

FIG. 10 is a schematic plane view showing the semiconductor memory chip in FIG. 9 and a conventional package, satisfying a conventional package size in accordance with the third embodiment of the present invention.

FIGS. 11A and 11B are schematic plane views showing relations between the semiconductor memory chip and the package by changing positions of the first and second control blocks in accordance with the third embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 11A, the first control block is arranged at a (2,1) region and the second control block is arranged at a (2,6) region different from the array in FIG. 9. Also, the first control block may be arranged at a (2,3) region and the second control block is arranged at a (2,4) region as shown in FIG. 11B. In accordance with the third embodiment of the present invention, the memory banks Bank_0 to Bank_3 have a non-rectangular shape and the semiconductor memory chip meets a conventional package size, so that there is no need to expand the X-axis of the package for the semiconductor memory chip having an increased storage capacity when the same rule is applied.

As the memory bank is fabricated with a non-rectangular shape instead of a regulated rectangular shape, a semiconductor memory chip having an increased storage capacity can satisfy the conventional package size. Therefore, a semiconductor memory chip of a high efficiency with a low cost can be fabricated.

Hereinafter, an array of a plurality of pads, power wires and data wires to be applied in the structure mentioned above will be described.

FIG. 12 is a schematic plane view showing interconnection between power lead frames and pads to be wire-boned each other in accordance with the second embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 6.

Reference symbols 1 a, 1 b and 1 c represent the lead frames for VSS, and reference symbols 2 a, 2 b and 2 c represent the lead frames for VDD. Also, a reference symbol 3 represents a pad and a reference symbol 4 represents a wire.

Generally, a SDRAM has package pins of three pairs of VDD and VSS. As shown in FIG. 12, the power lead frames are configured at left and right sides and a middle portion of the semiconductor memory chip. And, the lead frames 1 b and 2 b positioned at the middle portion of the semiconductor memory chip is formed to be wire-bonded with three pairs of VDD and VSS by bi-directionally expanding the lead frame to the X-axis. In FIG. 6, there is no need to form a power bus for the lead frame between the regions (2 a,3 a) and (2 b,3 b), and between the regions (2 a,4 a) and (2 b,4 b). Alos, the above lead frame can be applied to the embodiments of FIGS. 3 and 9.

The power wires configured in a wafer level of the chip is structured in a plane mesh type over the memory blocks of the chip. If the power wires or signal wires are configured between output wires of the Y-decoder, the power wires or the signal wires can be connected with between the first control block and the second control block. Therefore, there is no need to form the power wires or the signal wires between the regions (2 a,3 a) and (2 b,3 b), and between the regions (2 a,4 a) and (2 b,4 b), so that a space occupied by the pads and the control blocks can be reduced.

FIG. 13 is a plane view showing a configuration of data wires in accordance with the second embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 6.

Generally, the data wire of a memory array is connected to a sense amplifier in the Y-decoder. The data wires for each memory bank are joined to a global data wire. At this time, in order to reduce a data delay due to the wire, a left data wire 7 a of each memory bank is connected to a left data pad 3 a and a right data wire 7 b of each memory bank is connected to a right data pad 3 b as shown in FIG. 13.

Since the semiconductor memory chip has memory banks of a non-rectangular shape with plane, a semiconductor memory device having an increased storage capacity can be applied to the conventional package without developing an improved design rule. Namely, the semiconductor memory chip can be provided with a low cost.

Also, since there is no need to expand the package size, i.e., specially X-axis, in order to obtain the semiconductor memory chip of a high storage capacity, there is an effect reducing a ratio between the X-axis and the Y-axis of the semiconductor memory chip. Therefore, the number of chips to be obtained per the wafer is increased.

Furthermore, since the number of X-decoders for each memory bank can be reduced, an area occupied by the X-decoders can be reduced.
